2 Page 2 PPA Preamble Welcome to Auction 123 and it is our usual large auction with nearly 4,700 lots. This Catalogue has only been produced 2½ weeks before auction, on Sunday 8th December, as this will give us almost 2 weeks to receive payments and mail out lots before we take a well earned break from midday 20th December until 6th January. To ensure that your lots get processed as quickly as possible please include your payment details when you bid, typically that ensures that your lots will be in the mail by the Wednesday after the auction. Everyone at PPA would like to thank you for your support during the year and to extend our best wishes that you and your family have a happy festive season and a prosperous and healthy New Year. On the Saturday 11th January we will be in Sydney at the Stamp Fair being held by the Manly Warringah Leagues Club Stamp Club. The Fair is open from 9am to 5pm and is being held at 563 Pittwater Road Brookvale. Contact Hugh Freeman on hhf@optusnet.com.au or (02) for more information about this Fair. If you are in the area please drop in and say hello. David will also be happy to accept consignments for Phoenix Auctions at the same time. Our on-line bidders will be pleased to know that we have developed a new live-bidding screen. To bid live online go to the website and log in with your Client Code and Password. 10 minutes before the auction starts an Open Auction Live Bidding window link will appear below the image of the catalogue front page. Simply click on this and you will be ready to go. The pop-up window displays the last lot sold, the current lot and the next two lots. If you have already placed bids then these lots will be displayed in a bold font. A bid button will be displayed below the current lot number to bid at the next bid step. This button disappears when you have the top bid or when the auctioneer has stopped accepting bids. Use the View Bidsheet menu on the top right of the home page to review or place bids for later lots. This screen will also show you the total value of your succesful bids to help you manage your budget. Remember that we only sell lots that have bids already on them and therefore the pop-up window will only show and allow bidding on lots which already have bids on. To ensure a lot appears you will need to place some sort of initial bid on the lot, even if it is a below reserve bid. Every now and then we re-organise/improve the way our lots are ordered and presented. In this auction we have organised the FDCs by cover maker and then by issue. This will help the FDC collectors who are interested in the various makers. Please tell us whether you think this is a positive or negative change. Our clients who have access to the internet should also take time to review our retail lots. There are over 20,000 items which can be accessed and search for in the same way the auctions can. If you have your collecting interests set up these will also work on the retail list ensuring you can access them as efficiently as possible. Please ensure that you confirm your order once you have selected the items you wish to purchase. Our website provides many different ways of viewing those items or areas in the auction that interest you the most. We provide a standard selection in lot order, we provide searching by topic (over 250 of them) or by country and we provide searching by your collecting interests or a description search. Our Image Gallery enables you to just browse through the pictures and likewise you can also use the Image Gallery to just view the items that match your collecting interests. To help with your specific collecting interests and to find the lots that interest you, we provide an extract service. This service saves you time and helps to keep our costs down.

We take bids any way they come. David, Cathy & Keith. Auction :00am Sunday 8th December 2013

3 Auction :00am Sunday 8th December 2013 Page 3 HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM OUR CATALOGUE [These notes are offered as a guide to understanding the information given as symbols.] 1. Firstly, we have the lot number. If it is in bold and underlined, the item is illustrated: e.g (The actual location of the illustration is given at the end of the description: e.g. {Page 41.37} is position 37 on page 41.) 2. The second column contains a symbol, which represents the item(s) in the lot: ** Mint, unmounted o.g. * Mint, mounted o.g. W Unused, no gum D Piece ( Postmarks lots) * Cover or card B Booklets L Literature PS Postal Stationery S Stamp ( Postmarks lots) or, in the case of used stamps, covers & Postal Stationery a grading of the cancellation: V Neat postmark, leaving most of the stamp design clear F Neat postmark, across at least half of the stamp design G Untidy or indistinct postmark H Heavy or poorly struck postmark 3. The third column gives an overall quality assessment for the lot, from A to D. The same standard applies to mint and used stamps, to covers, postal stationery, literature etc. An item graded A is very fine; it has no faults. B items are fine and may have minor imperfections. A C item will exhibit obvious faults. Items in poor condition are rated D. Occasionally, an item in truly superb condition will be rated A+. This grading is used sparingly and is not applied to modern material, which one would normally expect to be in very fine to superb condition. An otherwise very fine item which has a subsidiary problem may be allocated an A-. This may be a stamp with writing or a hinge remainder on the reverse. A cover may have a receiver s endorsement on the face. The halves of a letter card may be stuck together. A book may have a previous owner s notations. Whether this factor makes the item an A- or B is a matter of degree. 4. The fourth column is relevant to perforated stamps, and also to lots listed under the sub-heading Postmarks. For perforated stamps, this column gives a grading for both centring and perforations. The letter A to D relates to centring. A stamps are very well centred; B stamps are slightly off-centre; C stamps are significantly off-centre, and may have the perforations slightly into the design; D stamps are badly off-centre, with the perforations well into the design. [NB: These gradings are the same for all perforated issues, whether Australian Decimals, De La Rue Colonial keyplates or 19 th Century American issues. However, it should be understood that for many issues poor centring is the norm. Thus C, and even D, gradings should be expected and accepted. For such issues a B stamp will be above-average and an A stamp will be considered an exceptional copy.] Following the letter A to D is a number 1 to 4. A stamp with all perforations intact is 1. One or two short perfs, or normal rough perforations, will drop the grading to 2. More notable perforation problems such as the perfs down one side being trimmed will result in a 3 grading. A stamp with major perforation faults will be a 4. [NB: A stamp graded A1 is well-centred with all perforations intact. In many cases, particularly with modern issues, this is the norm. However, for many issues, B2 or even C3 may be normal and quite acceptable.] For lots listed under the sub-headings Postmarks and Ship/Paquebot Markings, this column gives a grading for quality of the strike, and completeness. Quality is graded from A (very fine) to D (poor). Completeness is graded from 1 (complete) to 5 (identifiable only). + is used for superb strikes; - is used for postmarks which are lightly struck, a little doubled, or otherwise a bit short of the mark. 5. The 5th column contains the general description of the of the lot and should be self-evident, however the following notes apply specifically to postmark description. Whenever possible postmarks will be described in full, except that the top portion of a postmark is only spelt out when it differs from the post office name or requires some clarification. Bracketed shaded text within a description indicates that these characters cannot be read, while greyed characters are hard to read or are only partly present, as is the case when part of the postmark is on the edge of a stamp. Very large or small letters are represented by large and small fonts respectively; small fonts are particularly used to indicate the presence of small nylon wheels in the datestamp. The following example illustrates these points: '[POST] OFFICE/ 21DE86 /GARAH'. For postmark lots the condition of the postmark is the most important aspect of our descriptions. Minor defects in the stamp or cover are mentioned only when the value of the item is significant. Naturally, major defects will always be described. 6. The symbols in the second, third and fourth columns, and the illustrations of lots, form part of the lot description. 7. Figures in the right-hand column are our estimate of value. You may bid at, above or below estimate. The reserve price for almost every lot is 80% of estimate. Bids below this level will not be considered, except lots which have an estimate of $5 or less when bids below the reserve may be considered at the auctioneer s discretion. 8. Australian residents will have GST added to the hammer price of all lots. 9. We use the following standardised abbreviations: o.g. original gum opt(d) overprint(ed) d/s datestamp cds circular datestamp h/s handstamp mss manuscript; handwritten ERD earliest recorded date LRD latest recorded date o/o opened-out RLabel registration label M/S(s) miniature sheet(s) PPC picture postcard cnr corner blk block impt imprint mtd mounted provl provisional wmk watermark LDL large dateline (postmarks) SDL small dateline (postmarks) TLC,TRC,BLC,BRC Top Left Cnr, Top Right Cnr, Bottom Left Cnr, Bottom Right Cnr
